Hi
Welcome to health care magic
common side-effects are gastrointestinal: diarrhea nausea , abdominal pain , and vomiting. less than 1% of patients stop medicine due to side-effects. Nervousness, dermatological reactions, and anaphylaxis have been reported rarely. As with all antimicrobial agents, pseudomembranous colitis can also occur several weeks after azithromycin therapy. This drug commonly interfere with the effectiveness of birth control pills;

Few patients develop cholestatic hepatitis or delirium.I never recommend azithral for such a long period.Generally I give for three days only.Over use may cause resistant strains of bacteria also
